hey guys

the coil packs seem to be stuck in ??

i tried pulling them out with a tiny bit of force, not game enough to use more force.

for some reason they dont seem to want to come out

anyone have the same issue

would also like the answer to this as im trying to change mine this weekend

cheers

I just changed mine after reading this thread, very helpful!

You'll need a 16mm deep socket for the spark plugs, a 3" or more extension will help out as well.

well changed them yesterday, everthying was going sweet untill i overtightned one and cracked the ceramic. but after driving around everywhere trying to find iridiums was a PITA. then getting someone to gap to .8 all good now. just a quick question i bought BCPR5EIX-11 gapped to .8mm now everywhere i went asking for one they all told me i shouldnt be running them gapped to .8 bla bla bla 1.1 is sufficient. what you guys reckon?

Great post... what plugs are people suggesting for our stagea's?

What I have found looking around so far:

BCPR5EIX-11

NGK iridiums to suit rb20det

Spark Plugs - NGK BCPR7ES (copper, gapped to 0.8 mm)

Spark plugs (high speed) = NGK BCPR7ES (copper, gapped to 0.8 mm) ~$20 per set of 6.

Low speed = 1 range hotter, traffic = 2 ranges hotter.

NGK PFR5G-11

Step 4. Disconnect the loom plug (may vary in appearance). Then just move 2 disconnected looms off to the side. You don't have to remove the 2 circled screws.

How do you disconnect the the loom plug? I can't get it off and I don't want to break anything!

Also, do you have to remove the piping (for the cold air) that runs over the head to get to the spark plugs? The pictures do not show a top view shot of the engine bay with the "Nissan" cover off. Or do you simply slide it out underneath the piping?

0.8 is fine ive gone smaller depending on condition of ur coilpacks, i would never run 1.1 unless i have a beefed ignition sys. otherwise ull find it will mis under higher boost levels 15psi plus on stock 15year old coils.

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
